WORKING WITH YOUR CINTIQ

The Cintiq 13HD is designed for a wide range of flexibility and an ergonomic work approach. The design allows you to quickly adjust Cintiq to a different height and position whenever the need arises. Experiment by adjusting the display incline to determine which best fits your particular working style and tasks.

As you work with Cintiq you can rest your hand lightly on the screen, just as if it were a drawing board or sheet of paper.

Because the Cintiq’s surface will be a little higher than your desk, consider adjusting the height of your desk or chair to assure comfortable use of the device.

SETTING UP YOUR WORK AREA

To minimize fatigue, organize your work area to create a comfortable environment. Position Cintiq, the pen, and your keyboard for easy access without unnecessary reaching. The pen display and any other displays should be positioned so you can view them comfortably with a minimum of eyestrain.

If you have not already done so, set up the Cintiq for your preferred handedness. See Configuring Cintiq for handedness.

If working with a keyboard, consider locating the keyboard slightly below the desk surface in an adjustable keyboard tray.

Maintain a good posture at all times.
